#realtalkwithyou: I got into it today with someone about whether a Jewish politician's observance or stance on Israel makes them a "bad" Jew.
tldr, Torah-educated Jews giving secular people a hard time should consider the multiple examples in the Talmud, mainstream and whacky, of people who were not just lax about Judaism but deep into some very not-kosher stuff and it is clear that their repentance was accepted.
If you want to say that someone "is not a Jew" bc they don't keep this or that-- hello, you are talking smack about another Jew and don't tell me it's letoelet.
It doesn't make you less a Jew that you're doing it; it makes you an imperfect human being, just like the rest of us.
